Walking on land, my legs are still trembling, but it feels so good to be like a world away.
Lian Shanhai and others were dazzled by the endless flow of water around them.
I have never seen so many people, it seems endless. The surrounding houses are even more exquisite, and you can't even see them at a glance.
Living in a brick house is already a fairy-like life for Lian Shanhai and others.
But compared with this place, it's nothing.
There were all kinds of inexplicable fragrances in the air, stimulating everyone's taste buds, making them stop and go, unable to help but search around.
When they were on Sakhalin Island, the food that the troops marching north taught them was beyond their imagination. But only when they came here did they understand what heaven and earth meant.
Dahu held Lian Shanhai's hand tightly, looking back and forth with timid and curious eyes.
The complexity here made him a little scared, and the excitement here made him a little curious.
"We haven't even arrived in Shandong yet, but it's already so amazing. I really don't know what Shandong will be like."
Heishui no longer looked like a warrior, and followed Duan Gongshu's steps closely with his head shrunk. He doubted that he would definitely get lost here if he was alone.
They are looking at the scenery.
They are also other people's scenery.
After all, people here mostly wear short shirts and cotton-padded clothes, and their bodies are all wrapped tightly in furs.
Coupled with his simple appearance and timid expression, he looked like a country boy coming to the city.
"Master Jun, where did these people come from?"
The new generation of residents on Jeju Island are all very welcoming and open-minded. If you have any curiosity, you can ask them on the spot.
Duan Gongshu did not refuse people thousands of miles away.
"They all came from the north. They were going to Shandong. They traveled a lot by sea and they were all exhausted."
The person asking the question obviously knew a lot.
"They are the savage Jurchens, right? Why don't they have braids?"
Lian Shanhai murmured in defense: "We are from Shandong now, not Jurchens, and our braids have been cut off long ago."
The man said "Hey, you" and repeatedly handed over his hands.
"I'm really sorry. It's my brother who was reckless. Please forgive me. It's hard for you all to come far away. Why don't you come to the shop to sit down and have something to eat. Treat me as a guest."
Lian Shanhai and others arrived in a strange place for the first time. They didn't understand anything and didn't dare to respond.
At this time, Duan Gongshu can only step forward.
"Are you all hungry?"
Everyone nodded.
While on the boat, the only food available was various types of meat. If you eat too much, you will inevitably feel bored. By the end, everyone had lost their appetite.
This time we landed ashore and walked for so long, everyone was already hungry.
Duan Gongshu said: "Then let's eat first. This brother just happens to be treating us, so let's have a good meal."
Following Duan Gongshu's steps towards the restaurant, Lian Shanhai asked cautiously: "Adjutant Duan, don't you need to pay for food?"
Although they are primitive people, they have done a lot of business with the Northward Legion, and gradually understand some truths.
Duan Gongshu pointed at the shopkeeper.
"This brother said he was treating us, so he can eat for free. If he dares to keep his word, will I spare him?"
The shopkeeper's neck was quite unconvinced.
"A manly man, he spits and nails every time. If you say I'm going to treat you, then I'll treat you. If anyone regrets it, will he still be a human being?"
"First Evolution"
Duan Gongshu recognized his accent.
"Where are you from, second brother?"
The atmosphere immediately became harmonious at the word "Second Brother".
The shopkeeper arranged a good seat for them, and while waiting for the waiter to prepare the special meals, he chatted about household matters.
"I am from Dengzhou. I once learned some cooking skills from the master chef of Sihailou. Later I saved some money and opened a restaurant. Now that life is getting better, I have a very bad appetite and it is difficult to do business. Later, I heard from my cousin that there was money to be made here, so I ran over here to make a living."
There are many examples of shopkeepers in Shandong.
The improvement of living standards has led to a linear rise in people's tastes.
In the past, just opening a restaurant and doing a few lakeside operations would keep the business going. But now that Shandong people are not short of money, they have become picky about what they eat.
If you don't have outstanding cooking skills, you can't get a foothold in Shandong's catering industry.
This shopkeeper was obviously a second-hand man and couldn't continue his business in Dengzhou. Hearing that there was an opportunity in Jeju Island, he just gritted his teeth and ran over.
This place is still in its infancy and does not have high requirements for diet.
Most of the people coming and going are sailors on the ship. They are satisfied if they can eat something fresh when they go ashore, so the business is very good.
Although this shopkeeper is not very good at cooking, he is really generous. Not only did he treat guests, he was not stingy, and prepared a table full of dishes for Duan Gongshu, Lian Shanhai and others.
Seeing the colorful and beautiful flowers on each plate, even Shan Hai and others were dumbfounded and didn't dare to do anything.
"Come on, come on, since we are all hungry, and it is the shopkeeper's wish, we can't live up to it."
Duan Gongshu understood everyone's thoughts and immediately took the lead.
He dismantled the braised elbow with his own hands, and then put the best piece of meat into Dahu's bowl.
"If you don't know how to use tachyon, just eat it with your hands. It doesn't matter."
The red elbow was right in front of him, and the rich fragrance filled the front of his nose, which made Dahu eager to try it.
After hearing Duan Gongshu's words, he couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately buried his head in the bowl of the sea, holding his elbows and gnawing wildly like a little tiger.
Since Duan Gongshu made the move first, the others no longer held back and started fighting for it.
There are a lot of good things on this table of dishes. However, the shopkeeper's skills were limited, so he wasted a lot of materials.
But when I ate it in Lianshanhai and others, it was an unforgettable delicacy.
Everyone's eyes turned red when they thought that people here could eat something like this every day.
If they could eat such delicacies often, they would be willing to die.
While eating Haisai crazily, everyone's hearts were filled with turbulent waves.
In this life, you must be a Shandong native!
They can no longer go back to the life they once had of living like hair and drinking blood.
Duan Gongshu also ate a lot of fresh dishes.
Although the shopkeeper's craftsmanship was not very good, Duan Gongshu tasted something different.
"Shopkeeper, why are your dishes so delicious? But do you have any tips?"
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became tense.
"Forgive me, Master Jun. This is my unique secret. There are dozens of restaurants in this town, and everyone likes to come to my place to eat. It's all because of this."
Mr. Duan forgives me for not doing anything for myself.
"Your cooking skills are quite average, but it's just the added umami that makes it delicious. If you have such good food, why would you open a restaurant? You can make a lot of money from it."
He does not mean that.
The shopkeeper looked stunned.
"Master Jun, do you think I can make money with this secret recipe?"
Duan Gongshu was very sure.
"If your secret recipe can be mass-produced, you will definitely be able to make money, and you can make a lot of money."
